Description

Initially `SecurityService` was envisioned as a service that would provide only security related functionality. But it is possible to execute more general functionality (for e.g. more fine grained metrics tracking, special response headers, capacity management etc) as a part of the implementation of `SecurityService`. It would be good to consider a more appropriate name for `SecurityService`.
